# Commission Decision of 18 December 2009 on the adoption of the Work Plan for 2010 for the implementation of the second programme of Community action in the field of health (2008-2013), on the selection, award and other criteria for financial contributions to the actions of this programme and Community payment to the WHO Framework Convention on tobacco control (notified under document C(2009) 10183) (2009/964/EU), Division 2.9: Community Payment to WHO Framework Convention on tobacco control

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The European Community is full party to WHO Framework Convention on tobacco control (FCTC). The payment of the 2010-2011 Community contribution to the FCTC will be done under budget line 17 03 05 ‘International agreements and membership of international organisations in the field of public health and tobacco control’. The Community contribution is hence not financed from the Health Programme. The Community payment is based on the decision on the work plan and budget for the financial period 2010-2011 taken by the Third Conference of the Parties of the Convention in November 2008 (FCTC/COP/3/19).
The contribution of the European Community is fixed at USD 283 374 for a two year period (2010 to 2011). The work plan includes, inter alia, organisation of the 4th session of the Conference of the Parties, elaboration of the protocol on illicit tobacco trade, development and management of the reporting instrument under the Convention and development of guidelines to its implementation. The guidelines will address the regulation of the contents of tobacco products and their disclosure in order to implement its Articles 9 and 10, as well as education, communication, training and public awareness to implement its Article 12. The FCTC Secretariat will manage the funds according to WHO financial rules.
